Karcher 2.642-561.0 Chassis Pressure Cleaner

This is a good attachment for any of the high pressure washers from karcher, it cleans the undercarriage very well and also could spray foam detergent to break down the dirt and grime thoroughly, its made from high quality plastic and feels very durable, i use it once or twice a month for my truck, however for my other cars it doesn't go all the way under cause of low clearance, one is an audi a6 s line, the other is a weekend drag warrior mustang which is lowered, so if you have a sport car or a lowered car this might not be the best way to clean the undercarriage, but it does the job, i dont like to take my cars to the car wash and like to take care of them on my own

I purchased this chassis cleaner along with the top of the Karcher consumer line of pressure washers, the K5.740. I love them both! The chassis washer breaks down simply to pack away to a very small size. It connects back together in seconds and connects to the Karcher K5 series pressure washers with a 1/4 turn snap. The system is amazingly easy to use! The first video below is my wife using the machine under her 2013 Malibu Eco. I am laying on the ground taking the video. Once you finish going over your car slowly with the soap spray, go over again slowly with the fresh water spray and you will be simply amazed at how clean the car is! No crusty white salt residue remains! Everything is clean and looks freash and new!I am using a cleaner by Chemical Guys Heavy Duty Orange degreaser. Amazon has it in the gallon jug for around $17:http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040MQEJA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&s=automotiveAs you can see, this foams up and coats well, saturates the parts of the chassis/suspension and breaks down anything that is on the parts under the car. I do a very slow and complete fresh water rinse to remove the cleaner and then allow the car to set and dry. Even on my 2004 Grand Prix (second video linked below), the chassis looks so amazingly clean!I totally feel that this will greatly extend the life of the fuel/brake/vacuum lines as well as the car itself. You could never actually get under a car for a complete cleaning like this before. Now you can! For about $500 total cost, I got the pressure washer and the chassis washer.I've done my Hummer H3, my wifes Malibu, my son's Grand Prix, my Cruze, my fathers F-350, my mothers Jeep Grand Cheroke and her Lexus, a friends F-250 and another pals Accura and even another pals Chevy Silverado. Each person has been so happy to see how clean the vehicles become! The pressure washer as well as the chassis cleaner both still work like new.One note. The Karcher Chassis washer comes with 2 spray heads installed into the round spray head. They are actually sized for a larger machine than the K5 2000 PSI series. They work, but you may be able to get an even more powerfull spray from the proper sized spray heads. I have not looked into replacing the ones that were supplied from the factory.Bottom line? If you live in an area like me (Western Pennsylvania) where they dump salt and anti-ice chemicals on the roads by the tons per day..... YOU NEED THIS! As soon as the weather broke, I started lining up our families cars and trucks to get the corrosive chemicals flushed from the underside. The one gallon of Chemical Guys cleaner that I ordered will get me through next spring as well. I would say I have just about a half gallon left after doing all of the vehicles chassis listed above! You will love it![...][...]

Product is as advertised and works well and is easy to use. Complaint is that it doesn't take full advantage of the machine's pressure, so if you were thinking of using this to clean your truck after mudding, for example, forget about it. You'll still have to go under the truck with the regular pressure washer head.

Work really good to get brine off from state dot puts down on highways

I purchased the Lowes Green Works Power washer a few years ago, and it has served me well for washing the jeep and the stuff around the house. In April I went on an extended road trip up to the northern sates, when we arrived at our destination it snowed for a week, the roads were covered with salt and grime. When we returned I check all over and the internet for a good chassis pressure washer. I found the Karcher. When it arrived I quickly realized that it would not fit my Green Works. So I found a company that made an attachment for the Karcher and I bought a small pressure washer adapter at the local hardware store and whola a great under vehicle pressure washer. I have used this several times after mud'ing, 4x4ing and driving on salted roads and it works great every time! It's a bit on the pricey end and there isn't a big market to compare this item to, but it works well and I am happy!

Can not get enough water pressure out of this thing to have the water reach the chassis of my vehicle.

I use it for cleaning vehicles underneath and it is really awesome.

A must have for anyone looking to keep their chassis clean. I use this to keep my cars clean during winter. This easily connects to my Karcher pressure washer. The only complaint I have is you can buy the chassis wax in the US.
